Braised Cabbage
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp bacon fat, butter, or olive oil
- 2 medium onions, sliced 1/3 inch thick
- 1 large head green cabbage, washed, cored, and cut crosswise into 1-by-2-inch pieces
- salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
Heat the bacon fat or butter in a large covered skillet or Dutch oven until hot.
Add the onions and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes. Add the cabbage, and season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper. Stir the cabbage well, to coat with cooking fat and distribute seasonings.
Reduce heat to low, and cook, tightly covered, for 30-40 minutes, stirring often, until cabbage is very tender. Taste carefully for seasoning, and adjust if needed.
Makes enough to serve 6.
